Ahh, what a weekend. It all started with an early morning, and an exciting basketball game, which ended in a tie. Then, after watching my brothers baseball team make mistake after mistake, i left with my mom to go to the beach. We picked up V on the way, and off we were. When we finally got there, the first thing we did was attempt to teach V how to boogie board. It sortave a hit or miss with boogie boarding. You either get it right away, or it takes an extremely long time to learn how to do it correctly. Fortunately, V fell into the first category, and soon we had him riding some nice waves. Even though the waves weren't to good for surfing, i did catch a nice wave on the boogie board that took me all the way into shore.
Then, after some attempted skim boarding (which involved V falling on his butt very dramatically and hilariously), we played frisbee in the water. Then, a pleasant walk down the shoreline, and some good pics out by the rocks, a cool shuttle launch in the distance, and we were on our way back home. V fell asleep in our car on the way home, and i must say he is a funny sleeper.
Then, if that was enough fun for one day, my family and I also went to a movie afterwards. We saw Iron Man, and it was really good, much better than Indiana Jones i think. Then, i went to sleep almost immediatly when i arrived home.
Song today is No Way Back by Foo Fighters.
Good Night everyone.

And I Ran, I Ran So Far Away
So....FINALS ARE DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!. Finally, everything is done with. And...i think that i will manage a 4.0 for the final semester. Ahh, life is good right now. Nothing much more to report on the school front, but tonight, after messing with ubuntu with some help from V, i went on a nine miler. I felt so good, and i ran my six mile pr while running the nine miles. When it was all said and done, i had ran it in 59:53 minutes, which is amazazing.
Then, afterwards, i got back on linux and V and i worked on getting me the latest flash plugin, and then tried futilely to play a game of chess. Oh well. Oh, maybe the best part of linux is that now i have my sound back. Yes, it has been almost a year now since my computer stopped playing sound, and i am glad that it is finally back. Thank you V soo much.
Well, tomorrow should be fun because the Cinco De Amigos are all going to the beach, hopefully. It will be my first trip to the beach since spring break, and man has it been too long. I cant wait for tomorrow.
Well, i think that im going to bring this post to a close. Song today is I Ran by Flock Of Seagulls, although for some reason, i seemed to have Girls Just Wanna Have Fun by Cindi Lauper stuck in my head all day. It was super annoying. But i digress.
Gooood night.

Dearly Beloved, We Are Gathered Here Today To Get Through This Thing Called Life
Man, i missed a post. That makes me mad. It has been a while since I've missed a post, and last night, i just totally forgot. Not only that, but i forgot to do everything last night, including my homework. But anyways, yesterday was pretty normal. Eat, school, run, eat, bed. Basically normal enough for me. Today, however, was slightly better than yesterday. In school, not only did i ace all of my exams (including finishing the engineering exam in two minutes), but i was able to do Mrs. Spooner's political cartoon in fifteen minutes, still producing something miraculous.
Aside from that, a usual day. Got home, read for a bit, and then did some mile repeats (6:04, 5:54, and 5:38 with two minutes rest if anyones interested), and then just lounged by the pool for an hour. After a great dinner (pork loin and rice), i tried to do brazee's essay that he assigned because i forgot my book, but i just decided to say screw it. Then i took an hour long shower, very refreshing by the way, and, after chatting with josh for awhile, i decided i wanted to post early to try and maybe get to bed early. Lets see how that goes.
Well, song today is Lets Go Crazy by Prince, which how im feeling right now. Lets all just go crazy and see what happens. Ahh, if only if only.
Good night.

Don't You Forget About Me
Well, a very.....exhausting day to say the least. I arose from my slumber at around 5:30 in order to get ready to go to the Run for the Pineapple 5k. I guess all my training's been paying off, cause i ran a pr of 18:02. Actually, everyone on the team did well, and i am very optimistic for this XC season. After that, the day went kinda've like a blur. The race took a lot more out of me than i thought would. I did go to see Indiana Jones today, and it was pretty good, but besides that ive been sorta sitting on the couch watching movies, with no energy to do anything else. The movies included: The Matrix Revolutions, In the Land of Women, and When Harry Met Sally, along with some That 70's Show.
Now i chatting with timmy on facebook, and i feel like im gonna be going to bed pretty soon. Song today is Don't You Forget About Me by Simple Minds, made famous by the classic movie, The Breakfast Club, which if you haven't seen it V, its going on the list.
And now for sweet sleep.

I Wanna Rock And Roll All Night, And Party Every Day
Man, what an action packed day. Lets begin at well, the beginning. I woke up around 9 and then ate some waffles, so already a good start. Then, after chatting with V for awhile, i played some video games with my sister. The at 1 V showed up. This was the scene exactly--my brother and i were slouched on the couch playing Crash Tag Team Racing, and V walked in through the door, looked at us, said hi, and then immediately to the computer to start fiddling. Soon after Kim arrived, followed quickly by Tyler.
After about 45 minutes of trying to fix my computer, V finally gave up and we started to study. After going over Brazee's review and talking about the literary terms for spooner, we decided we needed a break and we all went in the pool. We played volleyball (me, my sister and my brother versus them three, and of course we won), and then we played jailbreak for awhile, and eventually it all dissolved to chicken fight.
When we finally got out because the weather didn't bode too well (it started to rain like 10 minutes after we got out), we started to study for Spanish. V pulled up these cool little quizzes on the net that tested you in all the different conjugations for different tenses. I did the best, while V, kim and Tyler struggled. Then we got bored and played a round of Texas Hold-em poker, which my brother regrettably won.
V left pretty much right at the end of the card game, and soon after Tyler had to leave as well. It was really funny because he had to leave right as it started to pour cats and dogs. Seriously, the rain was so thick that you could barely see my driveway, and the only way we knew his parents were out there was because their lights were on. After he left we all (my family and kim) played a round of Oh Hell, which is a game kinda like spades, but much more fun. She left right at the end of game. I just got done playing some guitar hero with my brother and sister, and i think i will go to bed in a little bit.
Song today is Rock and Roll All Night by Kiss.
Bye byes y'all.

When We Walk Through The Doors So Accusing Their Eyes Like They Have Any Right At All To Criticize; Hypocrites Your All Here For The Very Same Reason
Today was a half day at school, which was nice. In spooner i totally aced the separate (darn it! i spelled it wrong again) peace quiz because she let us use our books for showing up on a half day. Then in Hueter i aced his quiz, and now officially i have nothing left to do in his class the rest of the year besides take his exam. So nice. Then in Harriman i proved once again that i am much better than kim at playing a differences game, completing 6 differences (the sequel to 5 differences) way ahead of her. Then, after a sleepy bus ride home, i arrived and almost immediately started cleaning. Now, usually i am a very tidy person because i get this tick thing if stuff is out of whack, but since i share a room with my brother, who is the complete and total opposite of me, its always dirty. It took me nearly an hour to make it nice and neat the way i like it. Then, after finishing off the rest of the house, i sat back and relaxed for a few hours.
At around six i went for my first overdistance day of the year. 9 miles. I went into it pretty confident, and finished it in 1:02:44, which is just under 7 minute pace. I remember when i could barely do six miles at 7 minute pace. Now im doing nine of them. Im getting in such good shape now, i cant wait for the Run for the Pineapple monday to see how all this training is paying off. After a very refreshing glass of ice cold apple juice, i sat down and watched VH1's top 100 songs of the 90's. Some notables were Radiohead, R.H.C.P, Beck, Nirvana, and R.E.M. Now, almost consumed with exhaustion, i am typing out my post for the day so i can hopefully go to sleep soon.
Song for the day is Breathe by Anna Nalick. I don't know why, but i love that name.
Buena noche!

There Was A Man Back In '95 Who Ran Out Of Summers
Thursdaaaayyyy! That means only one more excruciating day left in the school week. Tomorrow should go by quickly though, as it is a half-day, thank god. Mrs. Lugo was being especially stupid today. First, she told us that a millennium equaled 100 years. When we told her that 100 years was a century, she didn't believe us. Crazy i tell you. In spooney we started to watch A Separate (i always misspell that word) Peace. Its alright so far, but like most movies made after a book, it wasn't near as good, and was almost nothing like it.
Then in hueter i found that i have an A in his class no matter what now, even if i don't finish our final project. That makes it four classes with an assured A-Spooner, Algebra,Engineering, and Web masters. And, the only class i absolutely have to get an A on the exam is Spanish. Every other class (barring that i finish with an A in them this nine weeks) i only have to get a C on the exam to get an A in the class. Woo hoo!
Thats about it. Cant wait for Saturday and some hard core studying with the Cinco De Amigos (and possibly more)! Song today is The Riddle by Five For Fighting.
G'night.

Close Your Eyes Girl, Look Inside Girl, Let The Sound Take Away
Ahh, Wednesday. This week has been movin by at the pace of a snail and today was no different. Today isn't really described by what happened, but rather by what didn't happen. Nothing really to note, other than i did my first workout of the year today. Mile repeats with a 2 minute rest in between. My splits were 6:14, 5:56, and 5:45, which is pretty good for the first of the year. After that i did my chemistry hw and then went bumper sticker surfin, and now i am hopefully going to be going to bed.
Song today is Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf. Good night guys (and girls).

Cause' Its A Bittersweet Symphony This Life
For some reason i have had that song stuck in my head the last few days (bittersweet symphony), but not one of the usual stuck in your head kinda things. Its like its been on repeat, just playing over and over and over again. Well, today was pretty normal, except for fourth period. It got kinda've confusing and strange, but i guess everything has a meaning, and i can only wonder what this will be.
Well, not much else to talk about, at least i feel that way.
Good night.

He Is Everything Inside Of You That You Wish You Could Be
Hmph. Another monday. But, maybe the last of the remaining few monday that i will have to go to school. Only eleven days left of school, and man am i counting down the days. But to what? As of right now, most of my days will be spent at home, on the couch, as unproductive as can be. But i want to change that, i want to get up and do something besides be a impassive passerby, staring in at the good life i may be doomed never to find. Oh, to use the words of another to explain ones thoughts, i must admit i do this too much, mostly because i dont have too many words of my own to use, so i use the words immortalized by those who spoke them. I have already done it in this post, although i know that the few that read my blog probably won't be able to pick up on it, mostly because they have probably not heard of it.
Well, with all that said and done, i would like to mention that fact that as i was on my run today i spyed a...i don't know...grouping?..of baby alligators. It was pretty cool, although where there is babies, there is a mama around to protect them and possibly bite your head off if you get too close. And i totally destroyed V, Kim and Tyler today in the debate. Not going to go into detail on that, you would've had to have been there to watch.
And, now i think im finally ready to bring this post to a close. Song today is Everything You Want by Vertical Horizon.
Good niite.

I Am Hannah's Regrets
Well, an extremely unproductive Sunday, for the most part. I awoke around ten, and then just sat around all day did absolutely nothing. Sounds nice, right? Try again. No, i've just felt that i have too many of these days in which i sit around and be lazy. I wanna put a stop to this, but i still don't know the remedy for the predicament in which i find myself. Pensive sigh.
But then around 8 i decided to do something, and did math, Spanish and History hw. The only hw i failed to do was chem, but oh well. I just finished up the dishes, and am now hopefully going to go to bed, but unfortunately i feel wide awake. Feels like i mite have a few more hours still. Oh well, at least i'll have sam to talk to.
Oh, i forgot to mention in Friday's post that V and Kim have come up with a new nickname for me. I have been dubbed the Village idiot. I run around and make them laugh with my foolish antics, never really understanding fully whats going on. I think it kinda fits.
Song today is Monster by Meg and Dia (thanx Sam for turning me onto them).
Sleeeeep.

See The Stone Set In Your Eyes
Well, today was fun, but early, that is, early in the morning. I got up at eight (grooaaannnn) to go to my sisters basketball game at Minsky. They won, easily, and Maddy got eight points. Then i came home and sorta sat around all day and played games with my brother and sister, you know, filling the gaps in boredom. Then, after going to Wal-mart for the weeks staple necessities with my dad, i headed out on a run, and was happily surprised to come home to a really good smoothie my dad had made. He used strawberries, blueberries, and heavy whipped cream, among other things. It was really good. Then we all sat down and played a round of cards for fun. My brother ended up winning, as he always seems to.
Then we watched The Core on fx. It was pretty good. Totally unrealistic and against practically every logical law of nature, but good action and story. Now, as the stroke of midnight approaches, i am posting and getting ready to go to bed, so i hopefully won't be as tired tomorrow as i was today. Song today is With Or Without You by U2.
Goooood night.

For Once In My Life Im Scared To Death
Hya everyone, just another Friday in the midst of life. Today went really fast, like i blink and whooosh, its over. Thats how my life has been going nowadays, just too fast for comfort. Don't get me wrong, im glad that school is almost over and its coming really fast, but i mean, i would like everything to just slow down for a few minutes so i can stop and smell the roses. I feel like this year might actually be over too fast, if that sounds crazy enough. Theres more i want to do with this year, and although i might have brought it on myself, i wish i just had more time. Ah the eternal need. More time.
Its funny that Mrs. Reynen is just as bored as we are. Shes counting down the days, ready to retire. The last few days in class she has been jumping at the first chance to go completely off topic for 15 minutes, like today when it came up that Mrs. Rodic makes some extremely perfect circles, and suddenly we were showing Reynen how to do it. Then tonite i went to my brothers basketball game (they lost big time) and then we went to Big Apple for din-din. I am sitting here now listening to V trying to convince to get linux.
Soooo...i really have nothing more to type about. Lets see-ranted, recapped (sortave), and gave a clarifying statement about what im currently doing. Yep, i think i just about covered it. Song today is First Time by Lifehouse.
Byeeeeee.

But Its Just The Price I Pay, Destiny Is Calling Me; Open Up My Eager Eyes, Cause Im Mr. Brightside
So, its Thursday. Finally, only one more day till the weeks over. This morning as i was reading tylers blog, i found that the FCAT writes plus scores were now available to the general public, namely me. I got a 5.5 on the writing. Again. Ever since the 4th grade ive gotten a 5.5, but never a 6. I got a 5 overall on the FCAT writes plus thingy, so i passed with flying colors.
The day would prove to be full of many more little surprises. When i got to school, i found that Mr. Brazee's test review had gotten onto myspace. So he threw a little temper tantrum over, threw all our tests out, and made us do a political cartoon as a substitute grade. It blew.
After that, the day went all too smoothly. I got home, ran, and did some hw. I am about to go watch the office. Special hour long show tonight. Seeya.
Ohh, right, the song today is Mr. Brightside by The killers.

They Taped Over Your Mouth, Scribbled Out The Truth With Their Lies
Ahh, halfway through the torture, and one of last time ill be saying that for awhile. See, school ends unofficially May 30th, when our exams are over. It ends officially on June 4th for those who are dragged to school by their parents, who are now mortified that thier children will be spending a lot more time with them over the next few months. Unfortunately im one of those precious few.
Today was alright, and i found i had a good grade in Spooner even though i didn't do well on her test. Thank the benchmark gods in all their glory. After that, everything was sortave a blur. I haven't really done anything since i got home besides run, do spanish hw, and do some riddling with V.
Today was without, and the post today reflects it. Seeya everyone.

This Aint No Never-Never Land
Sorry everyone, but i have missed some posts. In all the craziness Sunday with Mother's day, i forgot, and last night, i just couldn't get on. Not so convenient sometimes when you have to share the computer with the rest of the fam. Mothers day was awesome. I slept till 10 again, which i should start to watch out for. I was reading V's post from the other day when he talks about getting into better habits for summer, and i fully agree with him. Summer usually consists of up till midnight, awake at around eleven, and i wanna change that.
Then i went to my sisters championship basketball game at John Carroll. They were unable to beat the other team, and finished runner up. If they would've won, they would been state qualifiers. Then we came back to the house, and my dad cooked some steak and lobster tails, probably the best meal on earth (then again i think this of most food my dad cooks). Then we played some Oh Hell, which a card game kinda like hearts, but much more fun.
Then yesterday was sorta blah, cause i got no sleep watching survivor till like eleven, then the insomnia struck again. All in all, i figure i got around 3 hours of sleep. Then the day went by like a blur, and all i can remember is that it was reeeaaaalllly hot. All day. It sucked.
Today was beautiful. It was around 60 this morning with just a hint of wind in the air. Perfect. It stayed nice all day. I came home, watched Evan Almighty, and then did math. Zomg, number 29 was a monster all on its own. Still now, almost a few hours later, i still am unable to find solution to this problem. Troubled mind sigh.
Song today is Centerfold by the J. Giels Band. Listen to the lyrics, they're pretty interesting.

Desire Is The Hunger Is The Fire I Breathe
Man, what a lazy, do-nothing saturday. Its wierd, but since i didn't go to school yesterday, i felt like today was sunday, but fortunately, I still have another day of relaxation. I seriously didn't do anything today besides just sit around, watch tv, play video games, and listen to music. Oh, i also did some hardcore bumper sticker surfing when i got really bored.
So, really nothing to say about today, so im going to bring this to a head. Song today is Because The Night by 10,000 Maniacs (cause seriously, that version is way better than the original).
Byes

The Walls Start Breathing, My Minds Unweaving
AAAAAaaaaaaah! Before i go into todays post, i must tell you that im partaking in V's challenge to start every sentence with a different letter of the alphabet, in order, so bare with me.
Crazily enough, my parents let me stay home from school today, which usually never happens. Didn't see it coming, just out of the blue last night my dad says, hey wanna skip school tomorrow, so naturally i said yes. Early this morning, i awoke with my mom waking my brother up for school at 5, and it was really nice knowing that i didn't have to get up and go to school, and i promptly fell asleep until around 8 when my dad got home from work with dunkin donuts. First, i ate my breakfast, then got ready, and by eleven we were on our way. Going to the DMV was our first stop because i had to replace my permit (i lost my wallet a few weeks ago). Hardly anyone was there, and we got to walk right in and get it replaced (although the lady behind the counter gave us attitude for not making an appointment). I then went with my dad to the new longhorn steakhouse thats opening in traditions, and i tried to apply for a job, but he said that even as a busboy you had to be over 18, so we were shot down practically right away.
Jumping ahead, my dad and i then proceeded to go to wal-mart, where we brought some Mothers day stuff, which included a new phone for my mom. Keeling over from hunger, we both decided to go to Thirsty Turtles to get some of those great wings. Lounging around the bar, we started talking with the manager, who knows my dad. Making some small talk, we eventually find out that he used to work as the training manager for the Olive Garden down in Jupiter. Now we see an our opportunity, and ask him about how we could get a job at the olive garden opening in tradition, and he says that if i give him my name and number he'll see what he can do. Oh yeah, and he mentioned that i can also probably get some hours working this summer at the Thirsty Turtle. Probably the highlight of my week was today, but anyways. Quixotically, i left the house today thinking i would be trying for a job at Longhorn, but i came home afterwards realizing that i know was going to go in a completely different direction.
Right now im really glad with how the day turned out in that aspect, because its actually a lot better this way. So now i can't wait for the summer. Thats when, hopefully, many new and exciting things happen in my life. Usually, my summers are spent at the beach or at home, and with family sometimes. Virtually every day would be spent with nothing really accomplished, but now theres some hope that i can do something with this summer. With my new (hopefully) job and the Cinco de amigos, i might make it through the next few months without going insane. Xenomanically, i will strike out into the day. Yahoo, i made it through the whole post starting every sentence with a different letter of the alphabet, and song today is It Ends Tonight by All-American Rejects.
Zomg good night!

Go Toora Loora Toora Loo-Rye-Aye
So today was pretty uninteresting. Just to be argumentative, doesn't that make it interesting, at least interestingly uninteresting? Well, as far as interesting goes, today was anything but. Once again, the morning fog was the highlight of my day. This time it wasn't a heavy, rolling fog like yesterday, but more a misty carpet rolled along the ground. If you don't live in St. Lucie County, you probably won't know what im talking about, but bare with me. As you go over the small bridge right before the Midway exit on 95, you can see that long expanse of land that fades away into the sunrise every morning. Well, it just so happens that this morning the fog clung to the tops of the grove trees, and that coupled with the beautiful sunrise in the background was some sight.
After that, the day slowly got worse. There is nothing really to report on from school today, and i didn't really do anything exciting tonight either. I am glad to say that i am going to be playin' hookey tomorrow with my dad. We are going to go get my permit (i lost it when i lost my wallet), and then we are going to go to the Longhorn Steakhouse and the Olive garden opening up in Traditions near my house to see if i might be able to get a job there this summer. Fingers crossed! Cause my dad informed me two days ago that when i get my license, i will also have to start paying insurance as well, and my insurance is going to 130 dollars a month. So i need to find a source of income, and fast.
Anyways, I'm gonna bring this post to a close. Song today is Come On Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runners.
G'byes

This Song Has No Title
Sooooooo, what a Wednesday. Not really, i just like the way the alliteration of that sentence sounded in my head. It was a same old same old day, with your usual boring routine. But alas! A shining beacon of hope in the distance shining through the fog and rain impeding our fun. Today was really foggy, which was awesome. For some reason, i seem drawn to the dreary somber tones of rainy days and foggy mornings. Also, for some reason 95 was closed today, so Mrs. Lugo didn't get into class until there was 15 minutes left. Hallelujah and praise the lord.
After that, the day went pretty much like normal, which was expected. Today at around 6:30 i went for that beautiful twilight run, and it was amazing. I have found that i am actually in a lot better shape than i thought i was. I ran my 3 mile, 4 mile, and 5 mile course records, all on the way to my fastest six mile ever, 39 minutes and 42 seconds. It felt great. I maintain that you can't judge how a run will go until two miles in. Today i felt horrible and tired, and the first two miles felt pretty challenging, but at around the halfway mark, the light opened up to the heavens, and suddenly, no matter how much i pushed myself, i couldn't make myself tired. I figured, this doesn't happen too often, so i might as well have fun with it.
I just finished my chemistry graph. I think i lisdexic (get it?) or something cause i seriously had to do the graph over like 20 times cause i kept messing up. I started working on it at 8:45, and didn't finish until 10 minutes ago. Wtf?
Okay, ima wrap this post up. Song today is, well, check out the title of the post. If you don't know, its a Buffet song. Thanks to my dad, i know just about every Jimmy buffet song by heart (130 of his songs make up my itunes library), so yeah.
g'night.

Now And Again We Try; To Just Stay Alive
Well, what a tuesday. Whats so special about this tuesday you ask? Nothing. Nothing in the slightest. I swear my life is getting more and more boring, slipping from the exciting drama show on tv to the proverbial daytime soap. It really stinks. I mean, i get up, go to school, have some fun with friends, come home, and do nothing. My life is falling into an everlasting cycle of nothingness. Im sinking slowly, with nothing to hold me up.
Well, before i make this post totally depressing (too late), lets talk about today. I am glad to announce that Mrs. Lugo is officially the worst teacher ever (as if there was any debate), and im not even going to go into why. Also, i learned how a simple series circuit works today in Engineering. Besides that, my day was preeeety boring. Got home and watched House, and then just sorta mozed around for awhile, until finally gettin on the computer to post.
I noticed that i seem to start all of my paragraphs with Well,, so im not going to do it anymore. Okay then, ima wrap this up. The phones ringin and i better go get it!
Bye.

I Do Not Understand What It Is I Did Wrong
Well, just another Monday lost in the sands of time. This monday, however, is somewhat special in ways that are not even really that apparent. First of all, Mrs. Spooner taught us Functions today instead of Mrs. Reynen (spooner=english; she doesn't have and 1st, 2nd, or seventh periods cause her seniors left, so she subbed for Mrs. Reynen), which was a nice surprise. Also, tonight is special in another way that is completely unrelated to me at all, but i will at least acknowledge its unusuality (thats definitely not a word, but who cares).
Also, we learned for about the trillionth time this year about the periodic table and stoichiometry and dimensional analysis. My gosh, i mean its getting really old. But aside from that, the day was pretty nice, as mentioned above. Also, according to Mrs. Lugo, theres no way to say "back to the future" in spanish. Thanx Robby for the interesting story today.
Well, ima wrap this doggey up and head off to bed. Song today is Bodysnatchers by Radiohead.
See ya.

But How Can Take Somebody Before They Can Be Someone
Today was really slow. Woke up around 10 o clock and relaxed and played video games with my brother for a few hours, and then at around 1:30 we left to go to my Noo Noo's birthday party. It was pretty fun. We played some baggo, swam in the pool for a few hours, and ended up playing some wiffle ball baseball on one of the tennis courts. I won the game for us with a 2 run walk-off homerun.
Then we came home and i finished my brazee essay while watching License to Wed with my dad. It was pretty good, but i thought they coulda made it better, so it was kinda a letdown. Oh well. Im just about to get ready for bed, cause i figured tonight at least i should get to bed at a decent hour (i've went to bed after 11 for the past 4 nights). Song today is Typical by Mute Math.

Take On Me, Take Me On; I'll Be Gone In A Day Or Two
So, its been a few since ive posted. Well, thursday was kinda hectic, what with the relay for life meeting after school, then over to the awards ceremony, then to burger king, and then home at around 11 o' clock. So then it was soo late that i didn't want to post, i just fell asleep right away.
Then friday was kinda fun become we had the Academic Awards Ceremony, where i received the Engineering Student of the year award, which was a nice surprise. Plus i got to sit with Kim and V the whole time, which is always fun. Then afterwards the rest of the day was kinda lax, and in Mrs. Reynen's class we had a party with brownies and soda and such. Me, kim, tyler, v, and tim all played fast scrabble. We even got Mrs. Reynen to join in a few games. Then later that afternoon, after pickin up V and Eilene, we all went to the relay for life at Dan Mcarty Middle school (happy kim?).
It was really fun, cause there was a lot people there from school that i had no idea were coming. I ended up getting a few hours of sleep after around midnight, and when i woke up around five, and it was pouring. It ended up raining on and off for the next two hours while the sun came up , and when it finally peeked out over the horizon at us, it magically made all the rain go away. Today was a do-nothing saturday, cause i was so exhausted i just sat around a relaxed all day(minus my 4 mile run around six o clock).
I also watched Saved with mandy moore (and that other girl you always see in the movies but never know her name), and i had forgotten how good that movie was. I mean seriously, its amazing. I am currently working on my essay for brazee, and i thought i needed a break so i decided it was a pretty good time to blog. Song for today is Take On Me by A-ha.
